It's a simple tool for conceptualizing prototyping Google Glass applications. In just a few minutes, you can build a visualization of what a Google Glass wearer would see using your app.
"Fullscreen BEAM is the first application to allow Google Glass users share life's moments on YouTube directly from Glass. Enable auto-sharing on Twitter to easily share your videos with friends. You are required to own a Google Glass device to use Fullscreen BEAM."
"We recommend that you start your development by building on the Google Mirror API starter project, which is available in many popular languages such as Java and Python. The starter project demonstrates the major functionality of the Google Mirror API and gives you a good foundation in understanding how a simple piece of Glassware works. The following sections describe how to setup and deploy the starter project for your preferred language."
A group of us from Google[x] started Project Glass to build this kind of technology, one that helps you explore and share your world, putting you back in the moment. We're sharing this information now because we want to start a conversation and learn from your valuable input.
Google X Lab, sometimes known as Google X,[1] is a secret facility run by Google thought to be located somewhere in the Bay Area of Northern California.[2] Work at the lab is overseen by Sergey Brin, one of Google's co-founders.[3]
Reportedly worked on at the lab is a list of 100 projects pertaining to future technologies such as a space elevator, self-driving car, augmented reality glasses, a neural network that uses semi-supervised learning, enabling speech recognition and extraction of objects from video - for instance detecting if a cat is in a frame of video,[4] and the Web of Things.[2]
Google Glass has a series of Labs experiments that can be enabled on engineering or userdebug builds. Using APKTool, I've removed that restriction and now they can be enabled with root access.
Google SketchUp (free) is an easy-to-learn 3D modeling program whose few simple tools enable you to create 3D models of houses, sheds, decks, home additions, woodworking projects - even space ships. You can add details, textures and glass to your models, design with dimensional accuracy, and place your finished models in Google Earth, share them with others by posting them to the 3D Warehouse, or print hard copies. Google SketchUp (free) is a great way to discover if 3D modeling is right for you.
"Everything from maps, voice search, and video calls to email, calendar, Google Now and photos are all packed into a tiny hands-free device that's on when you need it and off when you don't."
